Yeah, I have to admit the guy I tried to feed the first time was just a wee on the medium side. I ran to a local pet store and picked up a 6 pack of small mice, I’ve got plenty of medium in the freezer but no small!

Tried to feed him a small yesterday and no interest, however he may have been stressed out due to me weighing him and getting the shed out of his cage.

I’m going to leave him completely alone for the next week until feeding day comes then try a small guy again and see what happens. Hopefully its good news. If nothing comes of it I’ll see about getting him a small hopper or something that can’t fight back.
